Greetings, Wintry Wanderers! Third term is in full swing by now and when I say “swing”, I mean something like “we are constantly doing a whole lot of work but being edified through it”. NSA’s classes all build on themselves and each other, and every term we have more and harder work to get done;…
Odds and Ends: A Ridiculously Long Post
Greetings, post-Christmas compatriots! “I should write a blog post when I get home from Christmas break,” said I to myself; “I can perhaps write one per week, about all sorts of things,” said I to myself; “I definitely won’t forget, because I’ll have so much time,” said I to myself. Yet here we are; I…
Christmas, and Other Stuff

In which I Am Living The Musical Life, Rhetoric Gets Awesome, Bread Is Hard, and Bots Suck

Week 6 Updates
Greetings, peoples. So it begins. …If you didn’t get that reference, there’s no hope for you. First of all, while I am technically Procrastinating™️, I am also not behind on anything and am not in a position (I think…I hope) to fall behind on anything. Therefore, writing this post is not procrastinatory of me. Or,…
This is quite interesting.
Testing testing. Once again I am playing around with this website, and unfortunately I don’t know how to code, so I’ve kind of hit a wall. Perhaps my father shall know how to help with various things such as centering images and rendering my tabs on the homepage actually usable. But in the meantime, I’m…
Goodness Gracious, This Website Is Complicated To Navigate!
This website appears very confusing to my untrained eye, which probably means that it can do lots of amazing things if I just poke around long enough. Huzzah!
